Just a bit of history for you –
Cinco de Mayo is always celebrated on May 5th as the name suggests. The holiday commemorates the Mexican Army’s victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. While schools are closed in Mexico on May 5th, it is not observed as a national holiday.
In the U.S., Cinco de Mayo has taken on a different meaning and is used to celebrate Mexican-American culture. It’s said that the holiday didn’t really start to be celebrated in the U.S. until the 1980’s when beer companies marketed the holiday to capitalize on the celebratory nature of the day. Now you can impress your friends as you pass those margaritas around…
